Captain_Yuri said: I'd be interested to see how the 2000 series age against the 5000 series considering the 2000 series has Ray Tracing and DLSS while 5000 series doesn't. Since the next gen twins are going to have ray tracing, clearly it's not a gimmick like PhysX was. |
Pretty similarly imo, as it needs a 2080Ti to really make something with Raytracing without everything slowing down to a crawl. And this will only get worse for for the smaller cards as time goes by. So I don't think that one a 5700XT vs 2070 Super for instance Raytracing will play any real role down the line.
As for DLSS, doesn't AMD have something similar to this which works with any game? As such, I'm not sure how big the impact of this one really will be.

You'll have to keep in mind that Intel still has an edge when it comes to gaming.
Also, Intel's Rocket Lake, that will replace the new Comet Lake (10th gen) Intel processors, will allegedly feature PCIe4.0 and are set to launch later this year. If you can wait...

The big question is how well Rocket lake will perform. Backporting an architecture is certainly not perfect for the end result of it. I expect a higher IPC, but that the plus in performance gets eaten up by lower clock speed and/or enhanced Power consumption.
The other question of course is if Rocket Lake still comes out this year now due to Coronavirus, and if it does, will come in high volume this year or is it just a paper launch?

Weird, what are they gonna launch on 2021? Zen 3+?

Not sure if they gonna release anything in 2021. Zen 3 comes late this year, and if Zen 4 comes out early 2022, the time gap between Zen 2 to Zen 3 would be the same as Zen 3 to Zen 4.
Of course, if Zen 4 comes out later in 2022, then putting some Zen 3+ in between will be pretty much mandated by the OEMs anyway. But since Zen 4 only recently got pushed back to 2022 (well, late last year), I have my hopes up that it will come out early 2022.
